    I really hope we can beat both of these teams. I was wondering if Peja is going to be coming back against and if Boozer will against us as well. We really need these wins.

    I understand Jazzholes, but what's with the Hornots?

    They have done nothing to us, and It's Jizzholes. :D

    We will win both games and the board will be back to positive posts.

    Will McGrady be big in both?

    The Rockets usually step up against solid competition, and in addition to that we rebound well as a team. I think it speaks to the teams' renewed infusion of fire and bite from Ron joining the team, that we come back strong after being knocked down.

    So, I am calling the next two games as wins. New Orleans is the better team but thankfully they are also the first team we play. In addition they'll be coming off a Christmas night match-up at Orlando before flying back home to play us, while we will have had two nights off. Utah is the crappier and less healthy team; I don't think any of the old Rockets nor Artest himself will forget how much they hate Utah.

    Yao's playing vs NO...so thats a Win...new orleans is trash, sorry.

    Jazz will be tough, no matter what.

    Scola and Artest should destroy the Jazz though.

    Jazz don't know much about Artest. Scola is pretty much the unknown guy and if Boozer comes back that's even better because Boozer plays as much defense as I do on NBA games...

    I hope the Rockets have a fire lit in them from the Cavs game and destroy the Hornets and j*zz.

    Both games are tough. Rox would win if they focused on their defense and got fair officiating. Win by clutch plays is honorable and floppers are disguesting.

    Hornets roster is so weak on paper...its not even funny. CP3 makes all their players look 2x better.

    If we start both Tracy and Rafer, we'll in all likelihood go 0-2.

    I hope McGrady's knee isn't sore, he usually goes off against the Jazz. Hornets aren't big of a challenge.

    Very good game and they are both winnable. Jazz aren't healthly and Hornets are not playing that well.

    We just need T-Mac and Yao at their best. It is good they get 2 days off before that stretch.
